Fiesta honors San Antonio de Padua

Mission San Antonio de Padua invites everyone to enjoy its annual Fiesta on June 10 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. beginning with the celebration of Mass.

The chicken or tri-tip barbecue dinner is $12 per plate. There will be dancing to local bands and displays by artists and artisans.

This is the only mission still located in its natural setting of beautiful hills. Turn from Highway 101 on Jolon Road, just north of Bradley, and follow it to Fort Hunter Liggett Military Installation.

Be sure to have your identification and current car documents with you.

Last year, the Campaign for Preservation of Mission San Antonio de Padua was launched to retrofit the buildings for earthquake safety.

It is a tax-exempt organization, and donations are welcomed. Donations may be sent to Mission San Antonio, P.O. Box 450, King City, CA 93930.
